The Wildcats defeated Bowling Green in the 2nd round of district play Wednesday night by a final of 5-2 and will move on to play St. Johns this Saturday night at 7 in the District Semi-finals.
The Cats jumped out to a early lead on  a goal from Mark Hall after some great fore-checking with line-mates Zach Felser and Dalton Carter. Aaron Booth made it 2-0 with a one time blast off a pass from Nolan Culver. BG would close to 2-1 with a goal near the end of the period as the teams headed to the 1st intermission. Northview would regain their 2 goal lead in the 2nd period scoring the only goal of the middle frame. Senior Captain Jordan Jones found a loose puck in the slot and his shot found its way through traffic for a 3-1 lead. Northview appeared to score another goal however it went in and out quickly and without the benefit of replay Northview would have to settle for a 2 goal lead after 2 periods. The Cats let up breifly at the start of the 3rd period and the Bobcats scored to close within a goal at 3-2, however Zach Felser Redeemed himself from a miscue earlier in the period to score on a pretty individual effort to regain a 2 goal cushion minutes later. Northview would clamp down defensively and seal the win as Nolan Culver scored in the final minutes for the final score, Northview 5 and Bowling Green 2.
